Step 2 - Member Agreement

1. I understand that this is an on-going membership payment plan and my account must be in good standing at all times.
2. I understand that this payment plan is agreed upon regardless of my facility usage and that the YMCA does not
prorate dues based on facility usage.
3. I understand that it is my responsibility to provide the YMCA with current up-to-date bank or credit card information
throughout the term of my membership.
4. I understand that if I wish to terminate or change membership in any way, I may do so by giving the YMCA a 10-day
written notice with completion of the Membership Modification Form. I understand that this means I
may have one final draft after the date I have signed this form.
5. Should any membership deduction not be honored by my bank for any reason, I realize that I am still responsible for the payment, plus any applicable service charge assessed by the YMCA.
6. I understand that the YMCA is using a third party to assist in the collection of returned drafts. If my draft is returned for any reason, my account will be debited electronically for the amount of the draft plus a processing fee on the date funds are available.
7. I understand that the YMCA may cancel my membership based on draft declines, unpaid past due balances, violation of the YMCA Code of Conduct, the Sex Offender policy, violation of policies/procedures of the YMCA, or any other cause.
8. I understand that the YMCA may, at its discretion, adjust the monthly rate applicable to my membership category.
9. SilverSneakers® and Silver & Fit® Members Only: In order to maintain accurate records, any SilverSneakers® or Silver & Fit® membership that is inactive for 180 days will be terminated. To reactivate a SilverSneakers® or Silver & Fit® membership, updated information will be required.
